Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
lol... this made my day. I wouldn't have had a clue how to write this one out.
Anyways, excellent song! Other recommended listening from Focus - the Hamburger Concerto album. One of my favorite albums of all time..
I think this song holds the secret as to the real meaning of life.
Contrary to popular belief, Hocus Pocus is not simply jibberish, but the greatest clue humanity has towards the discovery of the Holy Grail. As I'm sure you know, the holy grail is a sacred symbol that has been disputed and sought after for centuries. There have been arguments that the grail represents the Christian God's son, Jesus' blood line. Nobel Prize winners Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman disproved this theory in 1987. Focus gives us important clues of the grail's true meaning within it's famous, and seemingly innocent song "Hocus Pocus."
Its first line "Yodeadodoyodeadodoyodeadodoyodeadodo" is obviously an allusion to the great "Ard-RÃ" (high king) of Ireland. Ard-RÃs, not allowed any imperfections, were avid believers in the myth of the Holy grail, and sought after it to ensure their state of perfection, believing that if they found the grail, they would become a being of true perfection, like Jesus. They divided Ireland in to 5 provinces, to perform a grid-like search for the Grail. This is interesting to note because it has been rumored that Jesus had 5 fingers. The lyrics "Yodeadodoyodeadodoyodeadodoyodeadodo" roughly translates to "Jesus turned the grail into a portkey, it is hidden in the Irish Country side." This is the first important Clue Thijs van Leer slyly slips into "Hocus Pocus".
I know you are thinking "So what? What makes that a reliable source of information?" In July 1999, Anthropologist Edward Tylor discovered a locked door in the back of his closet of his Beverly Hills home. The door was made of Hawthorne, and upon the door in gold letters were the words "What's da password?" Focus, upon hearing of this mysterious door, traveled to Beverly Hills to help. Drummer Pierre van der Linden walked right up to the door and whispered "humpelilly-luptodoro". This proves Focus is in fact a band of wise wizards.
The final clue is in plain sight, and one of the most convincing pieces of evidence of the location of the holy grail. The term "Bom" is used within the song 26 times. 26 is the number of words that the word "grail" can be rearranged into. This leads us to the conclusion that The holy grail is most definitely in Ireland.
"grail" can be rearranged into 120 "words," not 26. FAIL.
It's supposed to be humorous, not factual.
"Grail" can be arranged into 26 words. (A few more, if that odd Scrabble Dictionary is to be trusted)<br /> While I agree that 5! = 120, I would go ahead and eliminate things like 'rlg' as words.
I think this is a bit closer to the "as sung" lyrics.

Somebody transcribed Thijs van Leer's "lyrics"?
Wow.
Otherwise a kick-ass instrumental. Jan Akkerman is a god.
I think you'd have to be psychotic to find meaning in this song. Some amazing guitar playing for the time though. Who else played like that then? Was ahead of his time for sure.
And I thought posting the "lyrics" to Ten Foot Pole by ZZ Top was senseless and funny, this one tops that.
This band was dynamite! I recommend for you all to listen to FOCUS´ "Hamburger Concerto". One of my top favourite pieces. And: if you want to sell your speakers: play "Hamburger Concerto" on them: sold!
